    Calzona Overland Expedition 2011

    Hey Dave, what a surprise running into you at Soda Lake. When I heard you on 146.460 I was thinking it was a portal member. We finished up the Mojave Rd. on sat. and had a great time. 5 vehicles, 5 Dads, and 12 Kids, nothing like getting the kids out and training them for the future. Good Luck...

    Changing out the A440 for a H55!!

    O.K. so I've had a few days testing her out. I took about a week until I felt like I could really comment on it. First off, the H55 wakes up the engine, You know how on some models you can buy the sport version, well it now is the sport version. You can keep the power band strong throughout 5th...

    Changing out the A440 for a H55!!

    Hey guys, thanks for the comments. ChuckB-- I never heard there are any issues with the swap from DMV. esh--with 33's I think this will be a great gearing combo. RockCrawler--I'm sure you guys are much faster than I. A few hours here and there for me. I'm working on taking the transfer case...

    I'm in the process of taking out the A440 form my FJ62, and replacing it with the H55 five speed. I'm planning on taking about a month to get through it all. Hopefully, this will help anyone considering the same swap. I've started a thread on the Mud web site...
